Okay. Here we go. It is midnight here in new york city, 9 00 p. M. Out on the west coast i am jen psaki msnbcs special coverage of Super Tuesday. I have some of my favorite people, as always, the midnight shift is the best shift as i like to say, to talk to here at the big table to break down everything that happened today. We will learn more tonight, too and we do have a lot to talk about because results from 16 states and one territory, dont forget that one, just brought us one big step closer to a rematch between resident joe biden and donald trump. As of this moment, on the republican side, trump has unsurprisingly won a bunch of state so far. Bringing his total number of delegates over 100, not enough to clinch the nomination but it is making it nearly impossible if not impossible for nikki haley to do that. So we just take a second to look at from by the numbers, just to catch everybody up here, that is four indictments, 91 criminal charges, to impeachments. 911 delegates as of t
Following the money in the biden pay to play investigation. A new statement, the committee has now identified over 20 million in payments from foreign sources to the biden family and their business associates. Republicans saying the timing is key.

The one thing i will tell you is as this congress, the peoples congress, well follow the facts and provide it to the American Public just like the constitution tells us to do. Har

And must see tv. Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett joins us live to make the case for Televising The Trump trials. All of this and more is coming up. And a good saturday morning to you all, im katie phang. We begin this hour with new developments in one of the several cases against the twice impeached, now thrice and dated, one term disgraced ex president. Overnight, the department of justice, seeking to have a federal judge impose a Protective Order on criminal defendant, donald trump. In Special Counsel jack smiths 2020 election case. The doj is concerned, rightfully, in my opinion, that trump will share sensitive and confidential information. And its likes to trumps own inflammatory social media posts in which trump appears to vow revenge. Its important to note that on thursday during trumps
Lottery, which begins right now. Today on inside politics, ohio says no. Voters reject a measure that would have made it easier for republicans trying to make it harder for women to get an abortion. Plus, do republicans solemnly swear to report who are whoever is the nominee. The Loyalty Pledge in order to make the first debate stage. And biden test drives a traffic and weather approach to win over voters. He defends his lclimate credentials in a new interview, but dances around a big unfulfilled promise. Im dana bash. Lets go behind the headlines and inside politics. Up first, a hard lesson for republicans in ohio and nationwide on the issue of abortion, again. Thats a hard no. Thats the headline in this mornings paper that follows a clear voter verdict. 57 of ohio voters rejected a ballot measure, issue one.
